‘The most New Balance shoe ever’ says it all, right? No, actually. The 574 might be our unlikeliest icon.
The 574 was built to be a reliable shoe that could do a lot of different things well rather than as a platform for revolutionary technology, or as a premium materials showcase. This unassuming, unpretentious versatility is exactly what launched the 574 into the ranks of all-time greats. As hybrid road/trail design built on a wider last than the previous generation’s narrow racing silhouettes, the 574 offered a uniquely versatile mix of new, different, uncomplicated, rugged, durable, and comfortable that was adopted as a closet staple across the globe. That’s why today, the 574 is synonymous with the boundary defying New Balance style, and worn by anyone.

Fit & Care
The suggested cleaning method for New Balance athletic shoes:
- Use a light bristle brush (an old toothbrush works well) and a mild detergent (either dishwashing or laundry).
- Be sure to use a detergent free of dye to avoid staining. We recommend spot check with the detergent to ensure no staining will occur.
- Scrub the shoes with the brush and use a damp cloth to wipe clean. Allow the shoes to thoroughly air dry for 24 hours.
